Wattson: Reload button vs. picking up fences

I had the same problem on PS4. I was in arenas and was just barely managing a 1v2 (I was alone of course), and with the fences I had down, the tide of the fight was leaning in my favor until I decided to "reload" while body blocking a door. However, my central node was picked up in place of the reload and I was killed with ease as I was defenseless. Very frustrating, so I really hope that changes come sooner rather than later.
